Anyone notice that this is running Sprint ID and not blur.Maybe that is why it is so slow. All the websites reviews are incorrect. I am pretty sure they didn't include blur in this phone.

Huh? Its overflowing with blur. Go into settings/accounts/add account. All those options are part of blur. The weird white
And colored widgets, like the 4g and wifi, those are blur.

Contacts, dialer, gallery, messaging, text messaging. All of it is blur.

He is probably referring to the hugely in your face earlier versions of Blur, not the current "don't call it motoblur" version of Blur they are using now.
Yea, its still blur. No hiding or denying it.

No I'm serious. The icons are skinned with Motorola. But go into sprint id and install a pack. Nothing changes. The default pack is considered an id pack.

Skinned with motorola = moto blur

I remember one review stated that Motorola said it wasn't Moto Blur cause it was revised. We all know it's Moto Blur though
No it is a moto version of sprint id. Go look in your system applications. Have you you never used a htc samsung or a different moto device? It actually has system files. It never used sprint id to be moto blur.

Ive owned a droid x a droid 2 and a cliq. I promise you the photon is moto blur. It has the same blur all the motorolas on gb have. Sprint id is a cheap knock off of htc hub imo.

I wanted to see what Sprint ID was all about so I downloaded the Social ID, all it did was download apps.....lol I thought it was some cool thing Sprint had but I was mistaken.
Lol. Same here. It just installs apps that pertain to the topic you choose.

U must just want to try the MoPho?
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
I had a mopho for about 12 hrs. Didn't like it mostly it was the screen and GUI were problems for me. I guess I really didn't realize how much I like sense. Now if the mopho had vanilla gingerbread like the nexus S it would be much better than moto's weird blur color scheme. I also found the GUI less proficient, but not sure why since it was so barebones.
I think both the mopho and 3VO are great phones it just comes down to personal preferences.

The Photon is much closer to vanilla than the 3d.

With all of the options available along with the clean profile in Sprint ID the gui shouldn't be a big deal.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
The UI is the last thing I'd let stop me from choosing a particular phone. It's too easy to replace with a third-party launcher. I mean, unless someone just REALLY loves Sense...
why does the bionic and DROID x have an updated Motorola UI vs. the atrix's Motorola blur. The new ui has more animations and a different app drawer. will we ever see this update?
Its still Moto blur technically. Motorola just changed the name. And they'll never all look the same. I mean the orange gb looks different from the att one in minor ways.

Doesn't matter, they both suck.

I hope Motoblur is toned down in future phones. I like the stock experience better.
one of iOS 5's big new features are the notification based alerts/notifications that will built into their new update.
I see that there r some apps one the market currently that try to utilize this technology (notably Geo Note), but Apple will undoubtedly set the standard for fully realizing this idea...for now.
A couple of dev buddies of mine who are iphone users think this will be another game changer. Thoughts???

Locale is the big android location app. It's been around for years. Having used it I'm not sure what kind of game changer it will be. Location based services are terrible on battery life.
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
The iOS5 location based notifications are a little different I believe.
For example, you can set it for when you leave somewhere, it might remind you to get your keys. Something to that extent.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
Its pretty neat at a technical stand point, but I for one wouldn't use it because it probably has a big impact on battery, so I wouldn't leave of on for half an hour just to get reminded about my keys or to stop by a grocery store.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Just out of curiosity, given maybe 8 meters for good GPS reception would it really be useful since you'd already be well out the door before it could remind you?

He's just speculating about the big brother stuff. Nome of us are important enough for the tracking information to be important. You're crazy if you think you are, and should ditch your smartphone. You're always traceable with it.

Eclipse uses the newer camera app. I know it works for that reason.

Stock Android still looks better.
its nice, been using it a while now and like it alot.
New motoblur is a step in the right direction with the modest amount of theming involved. They seem to have basically made their blur apps themed to blend well with stock ics which is nice. Icons are still ugly as hell though, and they changed the black statusbar? Personally, you wont find me runnin the new blueblur. For every blur app out there, there will be a better alternative in the play store.

I am definitely excited about trying the Official ICS from Motorola. I was on the stock Rom with my Photon for quite sometime before I rooted it and then started to flash custom Roms on it. In my own opinion, an small improvement with MotoBlur is a huge improvement for me.
i think ics with motoblur will be better than cm9
